TurboTax + Attorneys: Faster Bank Import
Attorneys handling divorce, bankruptcy, personal injury, and business litigation cases need to analyze bank statements for financial discovery and evidence preparation. If you use TurboTax for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for Attorneys Using TurboTax
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV formatted for direct import into TurboTax. Convert client and opposing party bank statements to searchable Excel spreadsheets for faster discovery review, asset tracing, and litigation support.
The Attorneys + TurboTax Workflow
Attorneys receive bank statements during discovery in litigation, review them for asset tracing in divorce and bankruptcy cases, analyze financial evidence in fraud and embezzlement matters, and manage IOLTA trust accounts for client funds. They convert statements to structured data for timeline construction, hidden asset identification, and expert witness preparation.
Key terms you'll encounter: IOLTA trust account, discovery production, asset tracing, three-way reconciliation.
